Next Nissan GT-R Spied Testing at Nurburgring
Not official yet but, these could be shots of what will become the 2011 Nissan R35 GT-R. These photos were shot on Thursday 23rd of April in Germany while Nissan had the Nordscheife to themselves setting new best laps on the ‘Ring with another, base model, standard 2010 GT-R.
Kislik, our friendly GT-R owner from the Czech Republic snapped these shots of the masked car as it was tested during the same session.
Firstly we asked ourselves why there was a masked, apparently base spec model on the circuit? Some theories were, that this was an older test mule from 2007 or possibly a 2011 SpecM test mule?
What we can say is, as you can see for yourself in the insets above, this GT-R has never seen before modifications to the rear underspoiler. Combine that with the fact that this license plate was previously used on Nissan’s SpecV test car in 2008 I think we can rule out the 2007 test car/old mule theory and infer this is a new car.
Visible changes? Firstly there’s venting on the underspoiler sides. Secondly there appears to be a modification to the diffuser at the rear – It looks to be in two pieces now. This is a 100% crop image so it’s about the most detail we have right now. Let us know if you pick anything different.

Aside from the added rear venting, it looks like the front bumper has broader dual-carnard like features than the current model year’s bumper.
Yeah man, your not the only one seeing that. thats the first thing i picked up as well!!
its same Nissan gtr
@GranTuRismo
I see what you mean now, would make sense since the front is masked also. Why mask the front if not to hide some change.
This is a dream for falakhs like us,the landlord of our filds live in Aswan,he himself can’t afford it,Ya hantush!Ana Khantarish!
when will the 2011 Spec V come to the U.S.?
nice car…
If the masking is hiding something, it’s not necessarily an alteration that’s going to stick. Take concept cars at an auto show, for example…you’ll see a car that looks incredible that is due to come out within 3-4 years. By the time it actually does show (if at all), it has been dumbed down into boring status. Testing is testing. They simply may be trying out a mod in the real world vs. the garage, but until you actually see it as a production model, it’s all up in the air.
